Hey Kath, I would love to give a report on my grow outs, hopefully, I'll have something to report. My PL tomatoes so far are the most advanced, BW Sudduth, Bloody butcher, Aunt Gertie's Gold, and the blacks are doing well, Black from tula, Tim's Black Ruffles and Black Ruffles. Black Krim is coming along. To my surprise, Orange Strawberry and Anna Russian are really showing progres - they were kind of wimpy. Now if the sun would only stay out and temps would warm up, maybe things will finally take off....

All mine are behind schedule due to late/stressed seedlings but I'm surprised some of them even lived to set fruit so I'm happy with how most of them are doing so far. Much of the taste-testing probably won't be happening until August this year. With the disease some are showing already, I hope they last that long. kath |

I think it's safe to say that there are going to be a lot of challenges this year. I've never grown the oxheart variety before and from what I'm seeing, the leaves tend to look limp. They are starting to get flowers so I guess they are ok. It's going to be a wait and see game and a lot of maintenance for prevention of everything!
